French Government Funds Museum Glorifying Palestinian Terrorists
Courtesy of the Jerusalem Post
A Paris museum subsidized by the French government opened an exhibition of photos of Palestinian suicide bombers, which the museum calls freedom fighters.
The exhibition of 68 photos entitled "Death" by Ahlam Shibli opened on May 28 at the Jeu de Paume museum of contemporary art in Paris.
The museum's website describes suicide bombers as "those who lost their lives fighting against the occupation," and the exhibition as being about "the efforts of Palestinian society to preserve their presence."
So my question is this:
Is this more about the French being so cowardly that they are literally </ i> paying tribute to the Palestinian terrorists, in the hope that they won't attack France? Or the French hating Jews so much that they love anyone who also hates Jews, even if they also hate the French? Or are the French really so credulous as to believe this nonsense?
What do you think?

Britain may be an Islamic nation within 20 years
Via Billy
CHARLOTTE, NC June 7, 2013 – Way back in 2003 an article in a British newspaper warned about a growing fear that the U.K. was on a fast track to becoming an Islamic nation. That was just ten years ago, and it seemed far fetched at the time. Now the British government has published a study with data that shows Islam will become the dominant religion within the next generation.
The concern in the 2003 article focused on the fact that Britain, and continental Europe for that matter, are becoming increasing secular while immigrant populations of devoted Muslims are growing.
The recent survey shows that while Christianity remains the dominant religion in the U.K. at over 50%, more than half the population if over the age of 50 and, for the first time, less than half the people under 25 consider themselves Christians.
Meanwhile, the Muslim population in Britain is growing so rapidly that Islam is predicted to overtake Christianity within the next 20 years. Combined with the growing secularization of native Britons, the Christian/Muslim ratio could tilt in favor of Islam even sooner than estimated.
Such a change could be a serious concern. When Islam becomes the dominant power in a society, Sharia law oftens follows and non-Muslims may be relegated to dhimmitude which means they are subjects of the Islamic state.
Already there are problems with Muslims taking to the streets of London and Paris on Fridays to observe prayers. Streets become jammed with faithful Muslims who create several blocks of traffic congestion. Though there are laws against such public gatherings, authorities usually look the other way.
In Stockholm, one district of the city now allows mosques to play Muslim calls to prayer.

A week ago this notice was posted by concerned gun owners in the state of Texas:
We will be gathering for a legal armed open carry march to raise public awareness of gun laws in Texas. It is partially in response to the Temple Police Department violating the Second and Fourth Amendment rights of Active Duty MSGT Christopher J. Grisham HERE. Please join us all. We will be exercising our rights as free men and women. Be part of the solution. All permits and armed march route has been approved and coordinated with the city and local authorities.
Come out for music, great speakers, food and a march around the police station and town square.
When: June 1stThe march ended up being successful and peaceful, as a local news channel reported:
Where: Temple, TX
Venue: Community Market 212 S. Main St.
Time: 10:00am-4:00pm
“While out hiking with my son through backcountry roads to help him earn his Eagle Scout rank, I was illegally arrested and disarmed without cause. I was thrown in jail and my lawfully owned weapons were confiscated without receipt or notice,” -GrishamThat’s right! Get your guns and get to Temple, TX. They forgot we have rights and we must remind them. If we don’t stand up for fellow Texans today then we will stand alone when it happens to us in our hometown. Just a reminder on legal open carry in Texas: It must be a long gun and can be strapped or hung on your person. Holding it could be considered “calculated to alarm” and this will be a peaceful march. We will be taking up donations for the 2nd Amendment Legal Defense Fund for Christopher J. Grisham.

Document Examiner Tied To Obama Defense Attorney Says Birth Certificate Is 100% Fraud
Reed Hayes is a court qualified handwriting and document examiner whose
business is located in Honolulu, Hawaii. He has nearly 40 years of
handwriting related experience, and has worked as an international
consultant and speaker. Never heard of him? Well, Hayes is the Certified
Document Examiner (CDE) who produced the 40 page opinion referenced in
the Mike Zullo affidavit that
was submitted to the Alabama Supreme Court in the Obama eligibility
case and his report concluded that the Obama birth certificate image,
located at WhiteHouse.gov is a complete fabrication.
PPSimmons reports:
The rabid followers of the “O” (Obots) have rushed to denounce Reed Hayes as a “quack.” However, one might be surprised to learn that one of Hayes’ clients listed in the Expert Witness Directory at this link is an attorney with Perkins-Coie Law Firm. Perkins – Coie is the law practice whose partners have provided Obama’s personal defense against all birth certificate and natural born citizen litigation over the past five years. Hmmmmm. Very interesting indeed.
If it turns out that Sheriff Arpaio is successful in getting Congress to investigate the authenticity of Obama’s BC, the Perkins-Coie legal team, who will be defending Obama, will be hard pressed to simply dismiss Reed Hayes as a “quack.” This fact will be especially significant now that it is a revealed and proven truth that members of the Perkins – Coie firm have used Hayes as an expert witness! Their own prior cases, where Hayes was used as a witness, would be severely compromised if they use Saul Alinski-styled mocking attacks on Hayes.
It has been reported that Mr. Hayes has been hounded by Obama operatives
to discover the details of his 40-page forensic analysis of the Obama
pdf birth certificate. He has been referring them to Sheriff Joe Arpaio
and his Cold Case Posse, who now legally own his report, for further
information.
I also found it interesting that someone sided with the Obama
administration and attempted to bring up dirt on Hayes by pointing out
that he was a homosexual with a “partner,” who is now deceased. Isn’t
that interesting? Why would that be considered “dirt” from the Obama
side? Isn’t he the one telling us that is “normal” and isn’t he the one
helping to push the homosexual agenda along? Ah, the hypocrisy!
Mike Zullo responded to the revelation from Hayes, “This ought to serve
as a warning shot across the bow to the naysayers of our criminal
investigation in the Obama fraud case. The impressive credentials of Mr.
Hayes, and the fact that he has testified in court cases for
Perkins-Coie coupled with the fact that Mr. Hayes is a registered
Democrat, demonstrates the integrity of our investigation and our
conviction that we possess incontrovertible evidence to back our case.
It must be emphasized that we possess much more evidence similar to this
revelation that we have not yet released for public information.”
Attorney Orly Taitz, who has also been pursuing the Obama fraud, even to
the Supreme Court, believes something else is going on. She writes:

Lawmakers Deny Knowing About Cell Phone, Internet Tracking
Congressional intelligence briefing sessions have not included details about President Barack Obama’s data-gathering programs, despite claims by the president that Congress approved the measures and “every member” knew about them, Republican Rep. Aaron Schock said.
“I can assure you the phone number tracking of non-criminal, non-terrorist suspects was not discussed,” the Illinois lawmaker told Politico. “Most members have stopped going to their classified briefings because they rarely tell us anything we don’t already know in the news. It really has become a charade.”
Responding to the furor over the National Security Agency’s data monitoring programs, Sen. Rand Paul of Kentucky introduced legislation Friday that requires a warrant be issued before any government agency can search phone records of Americans.
Paul calls the revelation of the program to collect phone records of millions of Verizon customers “an astounding assault on the Constitution.”

Super Bowl champ Matt Birk skips meeting with Obama over ‘God bless Planned Parenthood’ remark
For many athletes the chance to meet the president of the United States of America is a once-in-a-lifetime, never-to-be-missed opportunity. But not for Ravens Super Bowl champ Matt Birk.
Birk, who earned his Super Bowl ring earlier this year as a center with the Baltimore Ravens, told KFAN-FM this morning that he decided to skip a meet-and-greet with President Obama over the president’s support for Planned Parenthood.
“About five or six weeks ago, our president made a comment in a speech and he said, ‘God bless Planned Parenthood,’” Birk told the radio station. “Planned Parenthood performs about 330,000 abortions a year. I am Catholic, I am active in the pro-life movement, and I just felt like I couldn’t deal with that."
The football star said that while he has "great respect for the office of the president," he "couldn't endorse" the president's support for the country's top abortion organization "in any way."
"I'm very confused by [the president's] statement," said Birk. "For God to bless a place where they're ending 330,000 lives a year? I just chose not to attend."

School cut off Valedictorian's microphone during speech
A North Texas high school silenced its Valedictorian's microphone during his speech, prompting questions over his free speech rights.
Students attending the Joshua High School graduation say Remington Reimer's microphone was cut off, right when he began to talk about the Constitution.
"He just said, he was talking about getting constitutional rights getting taken away from him," Colin Radford, a Joshua H.S. graduate, said. "And then he said, just yesterday they threatened to turn my microphone off, and then his microphone went off."

Alabama National Guard to soldiers: Keep your thoughts on Democrats, guns and Barack Obama to yourself
Via Billy
Soldiers using social media should avoid comments on gun control, Democrats, President Barack Obama or personal opinions about state and federal government, according to an email sent to an Alabama National Guard member and covered on the Military Times blog Outside the Wire.
The email was sent from a first sergeant to a member of the Alabama National Guard in January but only recently forwarded to Military Times. With the subject line "Social Networking," the email offers what it says are dos for posting (saying happy birthday to a friend, for example) and don'ts (political commentary of just about any type.)

Several Colorado counties that strongly oppose increased regulation of the oil and gas industry say they want to form their own state.
They are planning on calling it North Colorado or Northern Colorado.
The counties are frustrated with the new agricultural and energy bills that have recently been signed into law.
“We really feel in northern and northeastern Colorado that we are ignored — citizens’ concerns are ignored, and we truly feel disenfranchised,” Weld County Commissioner Sean Conway told CBS4.

DOJ & FBI Raid News Media Offices After Releasing an Alarming Story on Obama
Via Cousin John
Within hours of publishing a scathing story on President Obama (http://wp.me/p3dd01-Yp) the DOJ raided the offices of the National Report claiming the raid was lawful under the USA Patriot Act but refusing to say why the government was taking the action.
At about 12:50 this afternoon the National Report released a damning story on the Obama birth certificate scandal providing new evidence which clearly shows the document to be fraudulent. According to Sheriff Joe Arpaio, his Cold Case Posse has the evidence to prove the presidents birth certificate was computer generated using Adobe Illustrator.
Cold Case Posse lead investigator Mike Zullo, revealed for the first time that his findings have been confirmed in a 40 page report by Reed Hayes, a Certified Documents Examiner (CDE) from Hawaii. The birth certificate posted to the White House website clearly shows it was forged using cut & paste methods in several layers.
At about 2:08 pm employees at the National Report were shocked when dozens of black clad machine gun toting DOJ agents wearing black masks entered the National Report office forcing everyone to the ground while demanding they put their hands on top their heads. After securing all employees FBI agents entered and began questioning employees and seizing files and other documents.
“We did exactly as they told us,” said National Report’s publisher Allen Montgomery, who added “No one knew what was happening.” Its being reported that the offices of Montgomery and Editor-in-Chief Nigel Covington, were ransacked and boxes of files were seized and carted off by FBI agents.
Covington said, “This is a gross violation of our Constitutional rights as American citizens and as journalists. All our files relating to President Obama were seized with others including all employee personnel files.”

Report: Homeschooling Growing Seven Times Faster than Public School Enrollment
Via WiscoDave
As homeschooling has become increasingly popular, common myths that have long been associated with the practice of homeschooling have been debunked.
Any concerns about the quality of education children receive by their parents can be put to rest by the consistently high placement of homeschooled students on standardized assessment exams. Data demonstrates that those who are independently educated generally score between the 65th and 89th percentile on these measures, while those in traditional academic settings average at around the 50th percentile. In addition, achievement gaps between sexes, income levels, or ethnicity—all of which have plagued public schools around the country—do not exist in homeschooling environments.
According to the report:
As dissatisfaction with the U.S. public school system grows, apparently so has the appeal of homeschooling. Educational researchers, in fact, are expecting a surge in the number of students educated at home by their parents over the next ten years, as more parents reject public schools.
A recent report in Education News states that, since 1999, the number of children who are homeschooled has increased by 75%. Though homeschooled children represent only 4% of all school-age children nationwide, the number of children whose parents choose to educate them at home rather than a traditional academic setting is growing seven times faster than the number of children enrolling in grades K-12 every year.
